"You said that someone chased and killed the Three Law Divisions back then?" Li Longji frowned.

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe what the minister said, you can personally ask the Imperial Doctor of the year, Lord Luo Zhongluo!" Li Canghai bowed deeply to Li Longji.

"Luo Zhong? Where is he now? Li Longji touched his beard in some surprise and asked.

Li Canghai clapped his hands, and in the crowd, an old man suddenly walked out, the old man had a yellow face and thin muscles, and his description was withered, but his clothes were unusually neat and neat.

This old man is none other than Luo Zhong, the imperial historian of fourteen years ago.

Luo Zhong was supported by his son and daughter-in-law at this time, and his granddaughter was followed by him, trembling towards the court.

"Old minister...... Luo Zhong, join Your Majesty! Luo Zhong looked excited, his voice was a little choked, and he knelt down in front of Li Longji.

"Luo Aiqing? Is it really you? Hurry up and excuse me, come here, give me a seat! Li Longji didn't seem to expect to see Luo Zhong again, and seeing that Luo Zhong was unable to move, he hurriedly moved a chair over.

"Old minister...... Thank you, Your Majesty! Luo Zhong burst into tears and bowed to Li Longji.

After Luo Zhong sat down, Li Longji opened his mouth and asked, "Luo Aiqing, what Li Canghai said, but is it true?" ”

Luo Zhong wiped away his tears and said tremblingly: "Back to Your Majesty, what Master Li said is true. At that time, the ministers and others were ordered to investigate Qin Fu, but they found that the so-called evidence was suspicious. We waited for the book to be written, and planned to jointly play it, but we were threatened and signed on the false case statement to confirm, resulting in Qin Fu being exterminated. Afterwards, the ministers felt ashamed, so they decided to resign and go into hiding. But I didn't expect to be chased and killed. After several lives and deaths, he had to stay incognito in Luoyang. ”

Li Longji heard this. There was a hint of anger in his eyes.

"Who is so bold? Dare to intercept and kill the court officials? ”

Li Canghai stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to know who is chasing and killing the imperial court officials. After the minister finished speaking, it was clear at a glance. ”

"Say!" Li Longji was obviously a little angry, and dared to chase and kill the three law divisions, which was slapping him in the face of the emperor, and it was a very loud one.

Luo Yushi has hidden this case for fourteen years, just so that one day, he can make the truth of that year public to the world. To illustrate one thing, Qin Fu was wronged! Li Canghai suddenly raised his voice. Positive color channel.

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

Except for a few people, the ministers and the people were shocked, and even Li Longji was shocked.

"Li Canghai, this is the result you found?" Li Longji looked a little angry.

Li Canghai said this, which is tantamount to saying that he killed Qin Fu by mistake and did a foolish thing.

If it is said that intercepting and killing the imperial court official is slapping him in the face, and Li Canghai's words are that after this, he gave him a slap in public. And this slap is much louder than the previous one.

"Your Majesty is angry, since Lord Li said so, he must have found something, so it is better to listen to him." Yang Guozhong bowed to Li Longji.

Li Longji frowned. He snorted and said, "Okay, I'd like to take a look." What exactly did you find! ”

Li Canghai looked at Yang Guozhong in surprise, and Yang Guozhong smiled at him. He arched his hand and said, "Master Li." If you find out anything, just say it! ”

Li Canghai nodded symbolically at him, although he knew that Yang Guozhong must have a purpose for helping him speak like this, but now is not the time to think about this.

Li Canghai thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the minister said that Qin Fu was wronged, not by his words, but by evidence. ”

"What evidence?" Li Longji asked unhappily.

"Before Luo Yushi and others resigned, they kept the personal and physical evidence clues that identified Qin Fu and hid them in Luoyang Mansion. A few days ago, the minister took out these things, and it can be said that these things are the most powerful evidence that Qin Fu was framed! Li Canghai clapped his hands, and Xiao Wu immediately walked up with a tray.

The crowd craned their necks to look and saw some paper and a few small items on the tray.

"That's the evidence you say?" Li Longji asked with a frown.

Li Canghai nodded, he picked up the paper with the name recorded, presented it to Li Longji, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the people on these lists are the people who pointed out that Qin Fu collaborated with the enemy and treasoned back then. They are all official and important positions now, and they are soaring, but fourteen years ago, they were all ordinary captains under Qin Fu. This records the testimony of their identification of Qin Fu back then, but these testimonies are full of loopholes. ”

"They said that Qin Fu had revealed to them about defecting to Tibet, and that they knew all the plans of Qin Fu to collude with Tibet, which is simply nonsense." Li Canghai threw off his wide official robe and sneered: "These people are all from other branches of the military, and they have been removed to the border pass, and the longest time is only two years, and they are all assigned to garrison in different places at the border pass. It can be said that Qin Fu is not familiar with them. In this case, why did Qin Fu tell someone he was not familiar with such an important matter as collaborating with the enemy and treason? If he did this, wouldn't Qin Fu be killing himself? ”

Everyone nodded one after another, feeling that what Li Canghai said was very reasonable.

No one would trust a person who has just been transferred to the border and is not familiar with him, let alone such a big thing as collaborating with the enemy and treason. These people are usually scattered all over the place, but I am afraid that it will be difficult for even Qin Fu to meet a few times, and Qin Fu is not a fool, why should he tell them about collaborating with the enemy and treason?

"In addition to this, these people have one thing in common, they are all protégés of the same person." Li Canghai said.

Li Longji looked at the list, he had already guessed what Li Canghai said, and his body trembled slightly, he suddenly crumpled the list into a ball, threw it at Li Canghai, and said angrily: "Li Canghai!" How bold are you to frame the deceased prime minister? ”

The emperor was furious, everyone was shocked, and the ministers and people knelt together.

Only Li Canghai stood quietly in place, he looked directly at Li Longji without humility or arrogance, and bent down to pick up the list that fell at his feet.

"How does Your Majesty know that the minister is framing him?" Li Canghai was not afraid of Li Longji, but was extremely calm.

Li Longji said angrily: "Although these people are Lin Fu's protégés, what do they have to do with Lin Fu? Lin Fu is loyal to me and the Tang Dynasty. How can you be allowed to slander like this? ”

Li Canghai sneered in his heart, towards traitors like Li Linfu. are all regarded as treasures, no wonder Datang will be in decline. He is still dreaming of prosperity. I never imagined that in a few years, Datang would become a troubled world because of his heavy use of traitorous ministers.

"Your Majesty is angry, please let Master Li finish, if he can't produce evidence, he is really framing Li Xiang, and it is not too late to convict him." Yang Guozhong's eyes rolled and he arched his hand.

Cui Lian, Gao Luochuan and other officials of the six ministries also chimed in.

Li Longji's face was a little ugly, he waved his hand and said, "Okay." I'll give you a chance! ”

Li Canghai exhaled deeply, picked up a small, strangely shaped pale yellow tiger talisman from the tray, and said: "This is the military talisman given to Qin Fu by the Tubo generals back then, and it is the evidence of his collaboration with the enemy, which has been preserved to this day. However, as far as the minister knew, the Tubo Talisman was made of pure gold, and the weight was 7.12 yuan. And this talisman weighs just over half of the standard weight. ”

In order to verify what he said to everyone, Li Canghai ordered someone to take the scale and weigh it on the spot.

Really. The talisman weighs only 5 gold.

"Master Li means that this talisman is a forgery?" Yang Guozhong asked, rubbing his beard.

"Not bad, the nuances of weight. It's hard to spot. What really struck me for sure was the specks on the talisman. Li Canghai said.

The crowd craned their necks. Try to look at the talisman he was holding.

However, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this talisman.

"This talisman. What's wrong? Yang Guozhong asked.

"It may be far away, and adults can't see clearly, but if it's close, you'll find the problem." Li Canghai said.

Yang Guozhong hesitated, looked at Li Longji, and asked for his opinion.

Li Longji also wanted to know what was wrong with this talisman, so he waved his hand.

Yang Guozhong hurriedly walked to the court, took the talisman from Li Canghai's hand, and looked at it carefully.

This look made him find some pale green spots on the talisman.

These spots are not noticeable and can be easily overlooked if you don't look closely.

"What are these spots?" Yang Guozhong wondered.

"Patinos." Li Canghai said two words simply.

"Patinos?" Yang Guozhong was stunned.

"Yes, it's patina. It was these patinas that convinced me that this talisman was a forgery. The patina is due to the fact that the talisman is made of a mixture of gold and brass. After Li Canghai finished speaking, he couldn't help but sneer and said: "In order to bring down Qin Fu as soon as possible, some people can be said to be impatient, so there will be such a big flaw. ”

"You said that Qin Fu was wronged, who was wronged?" Yang Guozhong suddenly realized, but he asked knowingly.

Li Canghai said indifferently: "Lord Yang must know better than anyone else, why do you want to ask knowingly?" ”

Yang Guozhong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Lord Li is wrong in what he said, and he didn't participate in this case, how can I know who wronged Qin Fu?" ”

"Oh? Is Lord Yang really not involved in this case? Li Canghai stared at him and said meaningfully.

"Lord Li, the most important thing at the moment is to find out, who is wronging Qin Fu, right?" Yang Guozhong squinted his eyes and said.

Li Canghai glanced at him deeply, and then said: "Framing Qin Fu is not done by one person. But if you talk about the entire plan laid out against Qin Fu, it is the credit of one person, and that is Luo Xizao! ”

Li Longji's face sank, and he said, "Li Canghai, do you think I am a three-year-old child, and I can play at will?" Luo Xizao rectified the rule of officials, and made great contributions to the imperial court, you actually said that he framed Qin Fu? ”

Li Canghai really didn't want to say anything, he said that Li Longji had become mediocre since the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, which was not bad at all.

greedy for pleasure, reusing traitors, and even more sadly, treating traitors as heroes.

"Your Majesty, now that Luo Xixiao is in Luoyang, Your Majesty can let him go to the court to confront him." Li Canghai did not confront him fiercely, but saluted him deeply and said calmly.

Li Canghai is not a fool, since ancient times, emperors have been cautious, and it is absolutely not good for him to collide with the emperor.

"Isn't Luo Xi-su supposed to be in Si'an-gun? Why Luoyang? Li Longji frowned, he waved his hand casually, and said in a deep voice: "Announce him to the court!" ”

Soon, Luo Xizao was taken to court under the guard of several Jinwuwei soldiers.

Luo Xizao was secretly surprised when he saw the public hall full of ministers, and when he saw Li Longji sitting in the warm pavilion, his eyes rolled and he knelt on the ground, and cried: "Your Majesty! Li Canghai put his ministers in prison for no reason, and begged His Majesty to be the master of the ministers! ”

Li Longji saw that Luo Xixiao was unkempt, looked haggard, and seemed to be tortured, he slapped the dragon chair and shouted: "Li Canghai! What's going on? ”

Li Canghai glanced at Luo Xizao, but found that Luo Xizao was flashing a trace of smugness, and he couldn't help but sneer.

He had long known that Luo Xixiao deliberately did not eat or drink, and made himself look haggard, just to pretend to be miserable in front of Li Longji, so as to win sympathy. But Li Canghai did not dismantle him, for Li Canghai, Luo Xizao's self-abuse can be regarded as a kind of atonement, and he is happy to see it.

"Back to Your Majesty, Luo Xixiao left his post without permission and was responsible for dereliction of duty. He was imprisoned by his ministers. ”

At this time, Gao Luochuan, the secretary of the ministry, walked out and said respectfully to Li Longji.

Li Canghai didn't expect Gao Luochuan to come out to relieve him, and nodded slightly at him.

According to the laws of the Ministry of Officials, officials leave their posts without reason, and the Ministry of Officials has the right to deal with them.

Luo Xixiao was stunned, he glared at Gao Luochuan hatefully, and he couldn't wait to go up and strangle him directly.

"Luo Xizao, the official said that he would let you meet the saint face to face. Now that the Holy One is right before you, you can say it! Li Canghai said indifferently.

Luo Xizao rolled his eyes and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about, what do you want me to say?" ”

"Naturally, it's how you designed to frame Qin Fu back then." Li Canghai glanced at him and said.

Luo Xizao laughed, and after he laughed for a while, he suddenly said with righteousness and awe: "Qin Fu collaborated with the enemy and treason, the evidence is conclusive, it is an indisputable matter, you say I framed him?" I think you're framing me! ”

Li Canghai looked at him deeply and said leisurely: "Luo Xizao, this official will give you another chance." Sometimes, life and death are only a thought, and you have to grasp it. ”

Luo Xixiao didn't care, he was just about to open his mouth to laugh at Li Canghai fiercely, but suddenly found that Li Canghai looked at him with a look of pity in his eyes.

Luo Xi is arrogant, thinking that he was in charge of the prison at the beginning, how majestic was he?

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that when he targeted the crown prince Li Heng, as a supervisor of the imperial history, he wantonly killed and degraded officials, but he killed all the way from Qingzhou to Lingnan, and even the former Prime Minister Li Shizhi was afraid of his name, and he committed suicide by poisoning himself in fear before he could go.

Now, Li Canghai actually cast pity on him, which makes him arrogant, how can he bear it?

"Qin Fu's collaboration with the enemy and treason is an indisputable fact, and I have never framed him!" Luo Xizao puffed up his chest and said proudly. (To be continued.) )
